Dominated by its magnificent castle and cathedral, Arundel is one of West Sussex's most distinctive and desirable towns. Its steep streets of period properties, independent character and setting on the River Arun attract buyers who value architecture, history and quality of environment as much as convenience. Nearby Amberley — one of the most expensive villages in West Sussex — sits just three miles away. Simply Softeners provides professional water softener installation across the area — protecting the plumbing and appliances that matter most in a premium property.
Despite its premium setting, Arundel has hard water. At 305ppm — classified as very hard — the water supply here causes limescale accumulation in boilers, appliances, pipework and bathroom fittings at a rate significantly above the national average.
Arundel and the surrounding Arun Valley commands some of the highest property values in coastal West Sussex. The combination of architectural character, castle views and National Park proximity creates a premium market that attracts significant London buyer interest.
For premium properties, the case for a water softener is even more compelling than for standard homes. The value of the assets being protected — new kitchens, quality bathroom fittings, underfloor heating systems, high-specification appliances — is proportionally higher. And the expectations of the people living in them tend to be higher too.
We don't operate a call centre or send out sales teams. When you contact Simply Softeners, you deal directly with the people who will survey your property and carry out the installation.
Every job starts with a free home survey — typically 30 minutes — where we assess your property, confirm the right unit for your household size and water hardness, and provide a written fixed price. The price we quote is the price you pay. No revisions after the survey, no additions on installation day.
Installation is completed in a single visit, typically taking 2–4 hours. We work around your schedule, leave the property tidy, and don't leave until you're satisfied and fully briefed on the system.
